[Rhodes22-list] Trailer Specs

[Todd Tavares]

Bob,

   The dimensions on the drawing of the trailer contain a mistake which I forgot to correct.  The rear vertical bunk support is taller than the front.  I had the dimensions reversed.  See the sketch with the boat.  16.5" in the rear and 15.5" in the front.  The question of supporting weight with the keel roller (and how much weight should bear on that support roller) has been debated here in the past.  Maybe some of the more experienced members will have better advice on that subject.

Todd

Could anyone please tell me the distances between the bunk support brackets on a Rhodes 22 trailer?  Also, what are the bunk lengths?  Thank you very much for your response.
